An ecosystem is a community of living organisms (plants, animals and microbes) in conjunction with the nonliving components of their environment (things like air, water and mineral soil), interacting as a system. Ecosystems come in various sizes but usually encompass specific, limited spaces (although it is sometimes said that the entire planet is an ecosystem)'

An economic community supported by a foundation of interacting organizations and individuals.

Environmental consciousnesses is high these days so the original definition of ecosystem is quite real to most people.

The newer application of the term to business and technologyThe methods of application of an art or science as opposed to mere knowledge of the science or art itself. (HCOB 13 Sep 65) ''Abbr.'' tech is not so familiar but every bit as important to the leaders of industry and particularly so for High-techAbbreviation for technology. The methods of application of an art or science as opposed to mere knowledge of the science or art itself. (HCOB 13 Sep 65) enterprises.

Companies such as Cisco Systems, Google and Microsoft depend on the concept for their survival and dominant positions. Cisco with networking gear that drives the information super highway, Microsoft with business desktop applications and Google with just about everything else...all seek to create an environment wherein the user or customer is kept inside their particular environment.

Facebook would be another example of this principal. Once there, users never want to leave. Groups, Pages, Wall, email and all your friends there...captivate you and hold you there. Why go anywhere else? It's an ecosystem that has propelled it to the number two ranked site on the Internet and made billions for its founder(s) and investors.

And think of the Apple ecosystem of Ipods, Ipads, Iphones, Istores, Itunes, MAC's etc.. They could even be said to have gone beyond an ecosystem and into cult status. :-)

So the concept of an ecosystem is powerful and should be understood by Scientologists interested in advancing their religious and philosophical beliefs and freedoms.

Scientology Central "OrgsShort for organization. (HCO PL 8 Sept 69)"

our world

Field Scientologists use Facebook and other Internet sites but do not have a 'real world' ecosystem anymore. The 'Central Organizations' which once provided a Scientology ecosystem are gone - lost to the whims of a corrupt management - with no replacement in sight.

Since the early 1980's when the first cracks in the brick-and-mortar Scientology ecosystem began to spread, up to current day widespread disaffection and abandonment of that once vaunted LRHL. Ron Hubbard dream of a dominant "oasis of sanity in a sea of a chaotic world", Scientologists have increasingly found themselves homeless, adrift and in many ways dispersed without a central hub or gathering spot where they could thrive and enjoy each others' company and the benefits of community.

The husks of the Central OrgsShort for organization. (HCO PL 8 Sept 69) are a mere shadow of what they once represented.

The hopes and dreams of tens of thousands who invested their labors and love into what those buildings represented - shelter, nurture, and hope for mankind - are gone with them.

The Internet has begun to offer a replacement.

Scientologists are finding a virtual replacement for the Brick-and-Mortar amongst the myriad of websites that have sprung up in recent times. But even this substitute communications vehicle is fragmented and includes such a broad spectrum of opinions and conflict that any true sense of cohesive community is elusive or non-existent.

There are no borders or walls to the Internet. Its wide open freedom has the liabilityBelow non-existence there is the condition of liability. The being has ceased to be simply non-existent as a team member and has taken on the color of an enemy. (Modern Management Technology Defined (C) 1976). of leaving one adrift at times and the need to create a new ecosystem within that border-less, untamed free-for-all known collectively as "The Internet" seems obvious.

The links at the bottom of this article lead to videos and articles describing what this website is all about. Since we knew that merely describing it would not be enough, we launched the site prematurely to try to demonstrate the software. This has had the liabilityBelow non-existence there is the condition of liability. The being has ceased to be simply non-existent as a team member and has taken on the color of an enemy. (Modern Management Technology Defined (C) 1976). of also displaying an unpolished and somewhat rough-around-the-edges look to the layout. People are used to going to more "finished" or polished looking sites they are already familiar with like blogs. Even a novice Internet user can put up a Wordpress blog site today and chose from a large number of pre-designed templates and present a nice look in minutes.

The wiki is a different beast. The very fact of it's power and versatility do not work in its favor when it comes to slick, out-of-the-box, user-friendly and simple deployment. Mediawiki.orgShort for organization. (HCO PL 8 Sept 69), (the same software Wikipedia uses) gives us a bare-bones powerhouse and leaves it up to the administrator(s) to do the design and development...a work-in-progress for scientolipedia.org since it has been a small volunteer team effort thus far. (July 2012, one year after publishing the first information about the project)

To do a project of this type elsewhere, (corporate, not-for-profit or governmental) and considering the scope and size of the subject matter and community, it would be normal to expect that a development team with a budget in the hundreds of thousands should be a more correct "order of magnitude" and sufficient resource allocation to pull it together.

Lacking broad agreement or understanding about what could and should be done with this technologyThe methods of application of an art or science as opposed to mere knowledge of the science or art itself. (HCOB 13 Sep 65) ''Abbr.'' tech and the subject of Scientology, we decided to launch the site on a shoestring in order to try to develop that agreement and resources.

Although you may be intrigued by the depth and complexity of the various areas of the site as a "viewer" or "visitor", moving over to being a "contributor" to the site is a bit more challenging for most.

This is a known challenge we face in the process of creating our own "ecosystem".

Yes, this is a Scientology ecosystem for the following reasons:

Internal communication1. the consideration and action of impelling an impulse or particle from source point across a distance to receipt point with the intention of bringing into being at the receipt point a duplication and understanding of that which emanated from the source point. (HCOB 5 Apr 73)...more system. Users can message each other and send email to other users without leaving the site or even knowing the receivers' email address. (see FAQ's for details)

Every page on the site acts as a Blog as well because there is a "Discussion" tab for each individual page where people can carry on threaded discussions about the topic of that particular page. (see example here or click on the Discussion tab at top of this page)

This is the only software that will allow this and it is key to the success of the site, key to high search rankings and whyThat basic outness found which will lead to a recovery of stats. (HCO PL 13 Oct 70 II), like Wikipedia, it can be an ecosystem all to itself.

It is easy to add elements like links, pictures, videos and references so that articles are more compelling and educate to a higher degree than regular websites.

Pop-up Glossary: Knowing the importance of handling misunderstood words, this site has the pop-up glossary to handle that phenomena instantly with Source references for the terms, abbreviations and acronyms used in Scientology. (mouse over the word auditor1. one who listens and computes; a Scn practitioner. 2. one who has been trained in the technology of Scn. An auditor applies standard technology to preclears. 3. a person who through church training becomes skilled in the successful application of Dn and Scn to his family, friends and the public to achieve the ability gained as stated on the Gradation Chart for his class of training...more here)

challenges to success

People seeing the site is a "good idea" and rather than understanding the Wikipedia model and the need for consolidated, shared effort on a single project, instead create competitive projects and thereby dilute and obstruct the initiative.

Factional differences within the Scientology community which obstruct cooperation and collaboration.

CoS operatives undermining efforts to get the Field focused on disseminating, coordinating and delivering.
